Microcyst adenomas of the pancreas are rare tumours with characteristic cysts lining the cubic and cylindric epithelia with a clear cytoplasm rich in glycogen. Unlike, mucinous cyst adenomas, there is no tendency toward malignancy. We report a case in a 58-year-old woman and emphasize the importance of precise pre- or per-operative diagnosis in order to avoid excessive exeresis for benign tumour. Certain authors propose abstention and follow up.

Background And Aims: Follicular-patterned thyroid tumors (FPTTs) are frequently encountered in thyroid pathology, encompassing follicular adenoma (FA), follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC), noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features (NIFTP), and follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (fvPTC). Recently, a distinct entity termed differentiated high-grade thyroid carcinoma has been described by the 5th edition of the WHO classification of the thyroid tumors, categorized as either high-grade fvPTC, high-grade FTC or high-grade oncocytic carcinoma of the thyroid (OCA). Accurate differentiation among these lesions, particular between the benign (FA), borderline (NIFTP) and malignant neoplasms (FTC and fvPTC), remains a challenge in both histopathological and cytological diagnoses.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the degree of effect of central lymph node dissection on postoperative hypoparathyroidism incidence.
Methods: The incidence of postoperative hypoparathyroidism was compared between patients receiving thyroidectomy with central neck dissection for papillary thyroid carcinoma and those undergoing thyroidectomy for benign thyroid diseases (thyroid follicular adenoma and/or nodular goiter) necessitating surgical intervention.
Results: The incidence of postoperative hypoparathyroidism was not significantly different between the groups of lobe thyroidectomy for benign thyroid diseases and lobe thyroidectomy with ipsilateral central lymph node dissection for papillary thyroid carcinoma (immediate: 9.
Renal failure due to rectal neoplastic polyp: McKittrick-Wheelock syndrome-a case report.

Background: McKittrick-Wheelock syndrome is an uncommon and severe disorder caused by large hypersecretory tumors located in the distal colorectal area. Excessive secretion from adenomas is an unusual clinical manifestation that leads to severe electrolyte and fluid depletion, subsequently resulting in kidney injury. Successful treatment relies on quick and cooperative decision-making for timely intervention.

Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) is a rare autosomal dominant disease with an estimated prevalence of 2 per 100,000. This disease is caused by a mutation in the tumor suppressor gene MEN1, which is located on chromosome 11 and codifies the menin protein. It is characterized by a predisposition of parathyroids, enteropancreatic, and anterior pituitary tumors, affecting the quality of life and lifespan of those who have the disease.
